Yo, Klaus: did you hear about the death of Bob Casales at 61?

Probably time to cut down on the fatty cheeses!

I am about to ask a very insulting question; brace yourself:

When you did "Save As" I have a feeling that Livecode "thinks" (sorry, 
bad anthropomorphizmus, Ik weet, Ik ben een idioot; vergeef me)
that it has 2 stacks in its memory with the same name.

This is similar to my having 2 stacks called "FattyCheeses.livecode"; 
one on the desktop and one in a folder called "Bob_Casales" on the desktop.

Now; if I open the one on the desktop, and then open the one in the 
folder I'm going to get what education lawyers (Yeah, I know, the 
parasites do exist) call "a conflict of interests.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So: to your stack called "filename_test1.livecode" . . .

You have a stack with this name open in the IDE; a stack you have saved 
to /Users/klaus/desktop/

and you do a "Save As" with it to /Users/klaus/desktop/RevKram/

at that point I think Livecode 6.3.2 (err . . . why are you not using 
6.5 ???????) "thinks" (sorry, again) it has 2 stacks
called "filename_test1.livecode" open.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The 'normal, tedious, way round, until the RunRev chaps stop working a 
40 hour week' [some of us: including Thee and Me, Klaus, put in a hell
of a lot more than 40 hours] would seem to be this:

do your "Save As";

then: do a "Close and Remove from Memory",

then open the Saved-as stack in its NEW location.
